There are already peer interfaces in Classpath.  They aren't
documented extensively.  And, when I've occasionally worked on AWT,
I've sometimes found it necessary to change the interfaces to suit.

Nevertheless I think they make a reasonable starting point.  Further
nailing down the API would definitely be worthwhile.  I think this
could take the form of javadoc patches to java.awt.peer.*.
